Mariya Pepelanova, Photographer, Paris

Description

This striking macro photograph by Mariya Pepelanova presents a surrealist composition centered on a realistic human eye framed within a set of parted red lips. The lips are coated in a vibrant matte red lipstick, showing detailed texture and natural skin creases along the curves. Inside, the eye features a distinct grey-blue iris with amber rings surrounding the black pupil, complete with delicate visible capillaries. The tight framing and sharp focus create an intense visual juxtaposition between the two anatomical features. The lighting is soft and even, highlighting the tactile qualities of the skin and makeup.
